This should be interesting. As if it's not enough to have the entire main stream media colluding for Hillary. This could be a bit of a gamble though. If she makes the argument seem too much like silencing dissent, it could backfire. Is she getting to far into the weeds of internet culture, or will she scare people to the ballot box to vote against 'literally hitler'? This has become the gamer-gate election.
Clinton to target Trump's 'alt-right' embrace in Thursday speech
- Trump did appoint the Breitbart CEO to run his campaign after all.yuekit
- That site is an absolute cesspool of hatred, ignorance and racism. But yeah funny that such an obscure internet term becomes election issue.yuekit
- Hillary should just post a link to /pol/ or the_donald so people can see the true nature of Trump's fanbase :)yuekit
- Yet they employ writers from different nationalities, sexual orientations and ethnicities. Not exactly what is considered racist.IRNlun6
- The left's fanbase can also easily be shown to be violent, ignorant and abusive as well. But it's minimized as a righteous anger.IRNlun6
- It's really unprecedented how the media has gone against Trump. Even if you agree that it's justifiable, it's glaringly obvious.IRNlun6
- his fan base is more diverse as people fall of from <-H. Its scary how you can create an opinion of someone by media alone.yurimon
- Sure they employ blacks who are willing to criticize other blacks and gays like Milo who are anti gay rights...so tolerant.yuekit
- The same strategy Fox employs. Find the handful of minorities who are willing to attack their own side for a white audience.yuekit
- yuekit, you know there is a growing demexityurimon
- The arguments are much more complex than that. It's not ever simply one side being right and the other wrong which is getting lost by many.IRNlun6
- There's never real debate. No truly challenging of ideas. Too many are caught up in their offense. Not enough questioning of deeply held beliefs.IRNlun6
- I don't see many deep nuanced arguments coming from a site like Breitbart, just a circlejerk of anti immigrant, anti feminist, liberals are destroying America..yuekit
- Diversity of opinion great, but that doesn't mean embracing lowest common denominator pandering to racism and ignorance.yuekit
- My favorite Breitbart story was when Milo tried to write about the alt right and claim they are a bunch of free speech advocates and not actually racist.yuekit
- And then actual alt right blogs write back, saying no actually it's not a joke, we really do hate the Jews.yuekit
- "Coming for a site like ____, just a circlejerk of pro immigrant, pro feminist, conservatives are destroying America.." Nothing is this black and white.IRNlun6
- Can pro/anti immigration, pro/anti feminism, con/liberal policy hurting America, can these go too far?IRNlun6
- I read how people want Ann Coulter dead all the time. Humans, are fucking crazy.IRNlun6
- Love or hate him, Milo is incredibly brave to express his opinions like he does. All the hate gay men get, he gets it in spades. Speaking freely is dangerous.IRNlun6
- I don't see what's brave about it, he's just cashing in on an audience by telling them what they want to hear.yuekit
- Criticizing social justice warriors on college campuses doesn't make you a brave dissident, it's low hanging fruit. Even Obama criticized them.yuekit
- I agree it's important to consider opposing viewpoints, but you may be missing the fact that sites like Breitbart base their entire existence on fear mongeringyuekit
- and demonizing the other side. Their site makes it look like the country is on the verge of being overtaken by radical feminists, Black Lives Matter,yuekit
- Muslims and Mexican immigrants. So for them to turn around and cry about being misunderstood is a bit laughable.yuekit
- fear is a great motivator as we all know. its the first priority of action, however the media distorts truth a great deal when it comes to mass access.yurimon
- also read deathboys comment. tie this with cultural Marxism and you have your answer. how to change society to your favor 101. However can you discern realyurimon
- threats vs manufactured ones? we still take for granted that we are not at the end of a transition but in progress and the left is acting like the brown, redyurimon
- shirts of PC days of Mao n friends. there are lessons in history. that cant be denied. certain conditions, economic, education, political create this cocktailyurimon
- of driving human energy into a direction. violence, personal attacks, you name it. ask yourself what are the real values and conditions for free n prosperousyurimon
- society. n find a time, conditions in this countries history that created this. compare it a time of false promises. the values. due it without bias. you willyurimon
- get your answer. its not what you my think. stats are there, the history is there but the propaganda is there also. its like travel thru a jungle. but you areyurimon
- luckier, you have the new Gutenberg press on steroids to look and cross reference research with traditional books. how many people would spend the time withyurimon
- the technological gift and instead of posting cat picks use it for getting things strait in order to make better choices, n look within yourself for the inyurimon
- imperfections first.yurimon
- Are you on acid writing these comments? Yeah cultural Marxism, good example of completely made up right wing paranoia.yuekit
- nothing paranoia about. did you skip the comments on learning from history? prob deathboys comments went over your head also.yurimon
- What are values that keep a free prosperous society?yurimon
- Tell me exactly what year you want to go back to when life was so much more free and prosperous.yuekit
- not an issue of what i want to hear. obviously you have an opinion. there is a cause in effect of policy, vs non, vs values, etc. obviously we have certain diffyurimon
- in tech etc. but it didnt happen over night. there is history which will take time for anyone to dig into information wise.yurimon
- Yeah sorry, I don't think there is a decades long conspiracy to brainwash people into being communists if that's your theory.yuekit
- If that's where your "research" led you, maybe it's time to start over and learn more critical thinking skills.yuekit
- Nah i was like you but when you look at results based on action unbiased, you dont label much in serious matters, you can see the cause n effects. especiallyyurimon
- historically in rise n fall of civilizations, empires. there is naive way to view the world. which is to label something and naively believe the cover storyyurimon
- when the actions contradict the labels. many ignore or brush off as another label. like the word conspiracy. which in itself was an invented word for dissentingyurimon
- views, peer pressure view of history 101.yurimon
